28:1 In
that
same
year,
at
the
beginning
of
the
reign
of
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah,
in
the
fifth
month
of
the
fourth
year,
Hananiah
the
son
of
Azzur,
the
prophet
from
Gibeon,
spoke
to
me
in
the
house
of
the
LORD,
in
the
presence
of
the
priests
and
all
the
people,
saying,
28:2 "Thus
says
the
LORD
of
hosts,
the
God
of
Israel:
I
have
broken
the
yoke
of
the
king
of
Babylon.
28:3 Within
two
years
I
will
bring
back
to
this
place
all
the
vessels
of
the
LORD's
house,
which
Nebuchadnezzar
king
of
Babylon
took
away
from
this
place
and
carried
to
Babylon.
28:4 I
will
also
bring
back
to
this
place
Jeconiah
the
son
of
Jehoiakim,
king
of
Judah,
and
all
the
exiles
from
Judah
who
went
to
Babylon,
declares
the
LORD,
for
I
will
break
the
yoke
of
the
king
of
Babylon."
28:5 Then
the
prophet
Jeremiah
spoke
to
Hananiah
the
prophet
in
the
presence
of
the
priests
and
all
the
people
who
were
standing
in
the
house
of
the
LORD,
28:6 and
the
prophet
Jeremiah
said,
"Amen!
May
the
LORD
do
so;
may
the
LORD
make
the
words
that
you
have
prophesied
come
true,
and
bring
back
to
this
place
from
Babylon
the
vessels
of
the
house
of
the
LORD,
and
all
the
exiles.
28:7 Yet
hear
now
this
word
that
I
speak
in
your
hearing
and
in
the
hearing
of
all
the
people.
28:8 The
prophets
who
preceded
you
and
me
from
ancient
times
prophesied
war,
famine,
and
pestilence
against
many
countries
and
great
kingdoms.
28:9 As
for
the
prophet
who
prophesies
peace,
when
the
word
of
that
prophet
comes
to
pass,
then
it
will
be
known
that
the
LORD
has
truly
sent
the
prophet."
28:10 Then
the
prophet
Hananiah
took
the
yoke-bars
from
the
neck
of
Jeremiah
the
prophet
and
broke
them.
28:11 And
Hananiah
spoke
in
the
presence
of
all
the
people,
saying,
"Thus
says
the
LORD:
Even
so
will
I
break
the
yoke
of
Nebuchadnezzar
king
of
Babylon
from
the
neck
of
all
the
nations
within
two
years."
But
Jeremiah
the
prophet
went
his
way.
28:12 Sometime
after
the
prophet
Hananiah
had
broken
the
yoke-bars
from
off
the
neck
of
Jeremiah
the
prophet,
the
word
of
the
LORD
came
to
Jeremiah:
28:13 "Go,
tell
Hananiah,
'Thus
says
the
LORD:
You
have
broken
wooden
bars,
but
you
have
made
in
their
place
bars
of
iron.
28:14 For
thus
says
the
LORD
of
hosts,
the
God
of
Israel:
I
have
put
upon
the
neck
of
all
these
nations
an
iron
yoke
to
serve
Nebuchadnezzar
king
of
Babylon,
and
they
shall
serve
him,
for
I
have
given
to
him
even
the
beasts
of
the
field.'"
28:15 And
Jeremiah
the
prophet
said
to
the
prophet
Hananiah,
"Listen,
Hananiah,
the
LORD
has
not
sent
you,
and
you
have
made
this
people
trust
in
a
lie.
28:16 Therefore
thus
says
the
LORD:
'Behold,
I
will
remove
you
from
the
face
of
the
earth.
This
year
you
shall
die,
because
you
have
uttered
rebellion
against
the
LORD.'"
28:17 In
that
same
year,
in
the
seventh
month,
the
prophet
Hananiah
died.
